Control your smart lights the traditional way with this white RunLessWire switch for Phillips Hue. Zigbee wireless technology allows for internet-free operation. This RunLessWire switch requires no wires or batteries, allowing for easy installation, and lets you control your Hue system and scenes via the light switch instead of the app.
Q: How do these work, what would be the usage cenario, they don't really have a description
A: It would appear to be similar to the Hue Wall Switch, but without the need for batteries. You'd be able to turn on or off Hue lights with the press of a wall button instead of using the app. I used a Hue Wall Switch to add basement lights where there was no existing switch wiring. I had a floor lamp plugged in with constant power with a Hue bulb installed. Mounted a switch like this to a nearby wall with double sided tape. Programmed the switch to operate the lamp. I haven't tried this specific model yet, but the other Hue switch would even let you program various settings. Example: One tap for full brightness. 2 taps for 50% brightness, 3 taps for Blue lighting. The option of using kinetic energy for the switch power is intriguing.
